This Thanksgiving... Let's Give "Thanks to Dogs," and how they help people

For Thanksgiving 2021, Logue Library would like to say thanks to the furry four-legged creatures who protect, comfort and install a smile on our faces - Dogs!  

 

These animals give nothing but love and look for some food and an occasional belly rub. But for this Thanksgiving Holiday, we would like to let them know that they are appreciated. 

 

No matter if they are roaming around Chestnut Hill College, or other locations, take the time to thank them with a light pat on the head.
